Downtown’s Milwaukee Art Museum, which overlooks Lake Michigan, holds more than 20,000 works of art, specializing in European and American pieces from the past few centuries, and features exhibits on American folk and decorative arts. The museum’s soaring, Santiago Calatrava-designed Quadracci Pavilion, highlighted by its movable winged walls, is an artistic masterpiece on its own and accommodates up to 1,000. Windhover Hall, with a 90-foot-tall glass atrium and stunning lake views, holds 1,500 for receptions and 500 for banquets. The Lubar Auditorium works well for lectures and seminars of up to 265.
